    • Evaluation of moisture damage within asphalt concrete mixes 
      Shah, Brij D. (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
      Pavements are a major part of the infrastructure in the United States. Moisture damage of these pavements is a significant problem. To predict and prevent this kind of moisture damage a great deal of research has been ...
    • Ground Penetrating Radar for Asphalt Concrete Density Profiling 
      Wilson, Bryan Thomas (2022-05-31)
      Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a non-destructive, rapid, and continuous measurement tool that can predict density in asphalt concrete. Despite the promise of GPR as a quality assurance tool, the technology has been slow ...
    • Microstructural viscoplastic continuum model for asphalt concrete 
      Tashman, Laith (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
      This dissertation presents the development of an anisotropic viscoplastic continuum damage model to describe the permanent deformation of asphalt pavements. The model is developed to account for several phenomena that ...
    • A thermodynamic approach for compaction of asphaltic composites 
      Koneru, Saradhi (2009-05-15)
      This thesis studies the mechanics which can be associated with asphalt concrete compaction and develops continuum models in a general thermo-mechanical setting which can be used in future work to corroborate experimental ...
